I want to cancel my .ETH name, what will happen?

You cannot cancel your .ETH name before the end of the first year's registration term. After that time you will be able to cancel at anytime and you will receive a full refund of the ETH (Ether) that is held in that domain less any gas costs associated with cancelling the name. You can view the amount held doing a name lookup at https://registrar.ens.domains. You will need setup your own wallet and contact our support team to have the ETH released to you. Please note, because of security concerns you will required to verify your identity before we release the Ether to you.
